A thorough understanding of rigid body dynamics as it relates tomodern mechanical and aerospace systems requires engineers to bewell versed in a variety of disciplines. This book offers anall-encompassing view by interconnecting a multitude of key areasin the study of rigid body dynamics, including classical mechanics,spacecraft dynamics, and multibody dynamics. In a clear,straightforward style ideal for learners at anylevel, Advanced Dynamics builds a solidfundamental base by first providing an in-depth review ofkinematics and basic dynamics before ultimately moving forward totackle advanced subject areas such as rigid body and Lagrangiandynamics. In addition, Advanced Dynamics:
* Is the only book that bridges the gap between rigid body,multibody, and spacecraft dynamics for graduate students andspecialists in mechanical and aerospace engineering
* Contains coverage of special applications that highlight thedifferent aspects of dynamics and enhances understanding ofadvanced systems across all related disciplines
* Presents material using the author's own theory ofdifferentiation in different coordinate frames, which allows forbetter understanding and application by students andprofessionals
Both a refresher and a professional resource, AdvancedDynamics leads readers on a rewarding educational journeythat will allow them to expand the scope of their engineeringacumen as they apply a wide range of applications across manydifferent engineering disciplines.
